Dear Aida, John and Nancy, Kyle, Keegan and Connor, Wallie was indeed one of a kind and certainly left a lasting impression. He genuinely had a heart of gold with family values at the forefront of his priorities. He did have so many battles, though you would never know as he seemed driven to share funny stories to light up a room. In all the decades we have known your loving husband, dad and grandfather, he did not change much in his abilities to recollect the good times. May these wonderful memories and moments live on in you. Remember, love lasts forever. With heartfelt condolences and love, Karen, Grant and family - Posted by: Karen and Grant Tyler (Friends) on: May 17, 2016
